Matt Hardy talks about Kenny Omega’s return and explains why he’s such a supporter of The Elite.
Matt Hardy and The Elite have a very special relationship. Much like Matt and Jeff Hardy, The Elite are credited with being forward thinkers and helping popularize a high-octane style of offense for their generation. Recently, Kenny Omega came back to team with Matt and Nick Jackson on August 17 as part of the AEW World Trios Tag Team Championship Tournament.
On the latest episode of The Extreme Life of Matt Hardy podcast, Matt Hardy opened up about how he feels regarding Omega’s return.
"I enjoyed it," he said. "I really appreciated how he was wearing the shirt and he was taped underneath that, and it's he was still selling his injuries as he came back a little prematurely, supposedly. The way he was selling all these major injuries that were reported he had in the context of the match was fantastic storytelling I love that match."
Furthermore, Matt Hardy said that while he appreciates that pro wrestling is subjective, he has strong feelings regarding those who don't like Kenny and The Young Bucks.
"They're very polarizing all three of them. Kenny Omega, Matt Jackson, Nick Jackson, The Young Bucks, people who don't get how good they are, they're just missing out and they do not get pro wrestling. They may think they get pro wrestling but they do not. If you are hating on Kenny Omega, Matt Jackson, and Nick Jackson, you're a fucking moron. I mean, it is what it is. They are great and I will defend them to my dying day. Because they are amazing. They are all groundbreakers they have set so many trends. The three of those guys are one of the major reasons AEW is in existence. They really really are and the stuff they did in New Japan was fantastic and they've all broken so many boundaries. They've gone so much further than anybody thought they would. So I'm gonna say it again, if you dislike Matt Jackson, Nick Jackson, and Kenny Omega, you are a fucking idiot," Hardy said.
Kenny and the Bucks will next face Will Ospreay and Aussie Open. Tensions are already high between Kenny and Ospreay. Check out their promo ahead of the match at this link.
